The GBI has arrested two Toccoa residents in connection to an elder abuse investigation.
In February, agents arrested Daniel Bennett, 58. In May, Jeffrey Roberts, 74, was taken into custody, a news release from the GBI states. Both men are charged with neglect to a disabled adult, elder person, or resident.
The GBI says its investigation into the matter is still ongoing.
Anyone with information is asked to call the GBI Regional Investigative Office in Cleveland at 706-348-4866. Anonymous tips may also be sent to 1-800-597-8477, online, or through the See Something, Send Something mobile app.
A GBI public affairs spokesperson says that once the investigation is done, the case will be turned over to the Stephens County District Attorney’s Office for prosecution.
